Paradox sends over this PR with official dates for Elven Legacy:

Paradox Announces Release Date for Elven LegacyNEW YORK – April 2nd 2009 - Paradox Interactive today announced the release date for their highly anticipated turn based Fantasy Wargame for the PC, Elven Legacy will be April 7th in the US and April 9th in Europe.

Elven Legacy sends players on an epic quest aimed to restore the former glory of the Elven race. With a thrilling non-linear storyline and tools that allow players to create their own missions and share them in multiplayer mode, Elven Legacy will provide hours of exciting game play for strategy fans.

Elven Legacy will be published worldwide by Paradox Interactive and will also be available on all leading digital download portals for a suggested retail price of $29.99 / &euro;29.99.

On behalf of all my comrades at RPGWatch I did some in depth research and discovered that a demo is planned for this exciting strategy title! I deduced this from the Downloads section of the official site, where a demo placeholder is waiting.

This game got a very solid review in Norway, from a site I respect (gave good reviews to the Gothic games, Kings Bounty, etc). The writer said the turn based combat was one of the highlights, with a challenging campaign and many tactical options.

Also, the prequel Fantasy Wars is on sale for $7.99 this weekend at Gamersgate. I may give it a shot at that price even though Fantasy Wars is supposed to be superior in most every aspect since I think there's a story connection.
